Japanese singer/actress joins PETA parade

I have no idea who Aya Sugimoto is, but she's hot and apparently doesn't like to wear fur, or sometimes clothes. She would seem to be perfect for PETA, then, following in the proud, naked footsteps of Holly Madison and Steve-O. (See the full, mildy NSFW Sugimoto photo here.) Still, it's possible PETA didn't vet Sugimoto properly, because she admits to still wearing leather—shocking behavior that PETA has also tried to stamp out (with help from porn stars). But are these ads even about fur or leather anymore? Not that we mind seeing naked women, but they're almost not worth the moralizing.

I usually find PETA's ads really extreme and in poor taste. Far too aggressive for people to actually listen to them without writing them off as wack-jobs. I know I have.

But the "Rather go naked" campaign is something they do right. It's attention grabbing in the way that DOESN'T say 'oh by the way, we're insane people'

If that ad is NS for W, I don't want to ever W again.

PS - I hate PETA.
